It requires no irrigation, pesticides or fertilizers to grow, and can be harvested within 3-5 years, as compared to approximately 30+ years for traditional hardwoods. Bamboo is extremely adaptable and produces more oxygen per acre than large tree species, while using a fraction of the water to grow.

About the Company

Brush with Bamboo

Every single plastic toothbrush, since production first began in the 1930’s, still exists in a landfill or ocean today (that’s over 4.7 billion brushes!) Shocked? So was the Kumar family, founders of Brush with Bamboo. They decided to take matters into their own hands and create a toothbrush that composts in nature, instead of polluting it!

Their signature toothbrush, made from sustainably grown 100% Certified Organic Wild Moso bamboo, features plant-based bio-bristles from Castor Bean oil and compostable packaging derived from vegetable cellophane. The brush handle is commercially compostable, as is their bamboo straws, so only the bristles end up in the trash. Plus all their products are vegan, cruelty-free, BPA-free, and without toxins. How could it get better than that?

The days of your toothbrushes living longer than you do are in the past. With Brush with Bamboo, you are saying no to plastic pollution and yes to sustainable solutions! Together, we can keep our teeth clean and the environment even cleaner by switching over to eco-friendly alternatives like Brush with Bamboo.

Hey Jennifer,

Great question! Since these straws are made from naturally grown bamboo, the inner diameter can range from straw to straw. Some are as large as 3/8ths of an inch, and some are just under 1/4 inch. However, we do recommend you check back with us in a couple of weeks, we will be adding glass boba straws shortly!

Thanks for your interest in using reusable straws 🙂
